illegals, multiple names at the same address, people who live in NoCarolina and come home every 4 years to say hey to friends,and vote from Mom’s house up here, too..you know, basic theft of the one-person, one-vote cherished privilege, which is being aborted worse than ever under the postulate: if you can’t win on better ideas and harder work, just steal it! Our poor country…
How about two different voter id’s, same birth dates, same address, same last name and same first name with only one letter added to one of the first names and they are both being sent vote by mail ballots to the same address overseas in the UK. And both are males. Hmmmmm?
